Wiz vs Hanwha Eagles Prediction 3 September 2026
📡 KT have now beaten Hanwha for the second night in a row, following up a 6-1 win with another high-scoring game, 9-6. The season series now stands at 10-3 in favor of the hosts, who maintain their grip on second place and continue to show greater consistency overall. The pitching matchup gets even more intriguing for game three: Ko Young-Pyo will face off against Wang Yan-Cheng.
Head-to-Head
📊 KT have claimed victory in 10 of their 13 head-to-head meetings this season-one of the most striking statistical trends of the day. Hanwha can certainly put runs on the board, as they showed by scoring six in the second game, but their pitching once again couldn’t contain KT’s offense. With tomorrow’s starting pitchers posting nearly identical numbers, KT’s consistent edge in H2H clashes takes on even greater significance.
Head-to-head statistics Wiz - Hanwha Eagles
Wiz Team Overview
KT have posted a 68-43-3 record, with a .279 team batting average, a collective ERA of 4.34, and 87 home runs. They’ve claimed both games in the current series, racking up a combined 15 runs. While their offense isn’t the most powerful in the KBO, KT consistently apply pressure with strings of hits and capitalize on Hanwha’s vulnerable pitching staff, whose ERA has already climbed above 5.00.
Match Results: Wiz
Hanwha Eagles Team Overview
Hanwha have dropped to 49-64-3. Their .272 team batting average and 144 home runs underline an offense that can keep up the pace, as evidenced by their six-run output in Game 2. However, the main issue remains unchanged - a team ERA of 5.16. Even a strong start on the mound offers little security, as the bullpen continues to struggle to close out games.

⚾ Starting Pitchers
Ko Young-Pyo enters with a 10-6 record and a 3.61 ERA. Against Hanwha, he's posted a 1-1 record with a 2.84 ERA. His head-to-head numbers are noticeably stronger than his season average, giving KT a chance for a much steadier opening compared to the high-scoring 9-6 affair the previous night.
Wang Yan-Cheng stands at 10-5 with a 3.52 ERA. Against KT, he's been even more impressive, going 2-0 with a 3.60 ERA. Statistically, he edges out the home starter and has already proven effective against KT this season, so the opening five or six innings could be the most challenging stretch for the selected side.
⭐ Editor's Pick
This opening matchup looks evenly balanced, and Hanwha can certainly count on Van Yan Cheng as a major asset. However, over the full stretch of nine innings, KT appear to hold a more consistent edge. The hosts lead the season series 10-3, have taken the first two games of this set, and boast a team ERA nearly 0.8 lower than their rivals. Ko Young Pyo has also proven effective at shutting down Hanwha’s offense, and once the starters exit, KT’s superior bullpen should become even more apparent. The visitors have enough quality to keep things competitive, but snapping a season-long trend will be a tall order. For this matchup, we’re backing a KT win.
